A diesel would be a fun swap. As far as wanting a d1 I’ve heard that the earlier defenders had less head gasket issues than the d2s. I’d like a ranger rover but then I’m getting up to the price of a 80 series. I don’t want a d3 due to the fact that I’m set on having a solid front axel.
I really appreciate your reply. I have a long history with Toyota’s from building rock crawlers and have just always loved the reliability of them as well as simplicity. I guess when it comes down to it I would definitely prefer the 80 series but the price difference of a land rover is what drew...
Looking to start a new build. I figure the best advise comes from those who have already owned either of these rigs. I’ve narrowed it down to a fzj 80 or a Land Rover discovery 1. Seeing if anyone have and experience with them and some of the pros and cons of both.
